The Brave Pedestrian

Mumbai, 28th June, 2018: Two months ago, MahaRERA passed an order favouring flat-buyers of Bhagtani Executive, now known as Ashok Odyssey, Ghatkopar . The order by Gautam Chatterjee said, "...parties are directed to execute the agreement for sale... within 45 days from the date of this Order. While executing the agreement for sale, Respondent should adjust the amounts paid by the Complainant to its net present value taking into account the time value of money paid by the Complainant in the year 2015."  Click here to read the RERA Order dated 26th April, 2018 .  This order is strictly applicable to only the complainant, namely Christina Contractor. However, this order is a huge step for all those flat-buyers who paid lakhs of rupees to Bhagtani builders for booking a flat in Executive, only to find that it was later renamed as Ashok Odyssey and taken over by Sanyam Realtors. Sanyam Realtors are basically Bhagtani's former partners "RJ Group".  The tran...

Mumbai, 30th November, 2017: A huge outcry has been raised by hundreds of Bhagtani builder's cheated customers, who paid lakhs of rupees and booked flats in Riyo (Mira Road), Sapphire (Dahisar), Serenity (Powai) and Savannah (Kanjurmarg). But amidst all this commotion, those who booked flats in a building called Executive in Ghatkopar West are strangely silent. Why? The reason seems to be that Executive was registered with MahaRERA as Ashok Odyssey, not by Bhagtani but by a company called Sanyam Realtors , headed by Akshay Jain.

Who is Akshay Jain? Son of Rakesh Jain of RJ Group, who gave development rights to Bhagtani's EDMD Infracon Pvt Ltd for construction of the Executive project. He...
